Another name of cation?
A common name for a cation is a positively charged ion.
What is the cation name for lithium when it loses an electron?
Li+ cation
What is the name of the of the ion Na?
Na+ is called a sodium ion or sodium cation.
What is the name of Si4?
The cation Si4+.
Which ion is always written first in a chemical name?
The cation is always written first in a chemical name. Cations are positively charged ions, while anions are negatively charged ions. The convention is to write the cation first, followed by the anion.
What does the II in the name Iron II indicate about the cation?
The roman numeral II in the name Iron II indicates that the cation has a +2 charge. This means that the iron ion has lost two electrons, resulting in a positive charge.
What does the name iron in a compound indicate about the cation?
The presence of "iron" in a compound indicates that the cation in the compound is likely iron (Fe) in one of its various oxidation states. The specific oxidation state of iron can be determined by the compound's name or formula, such as Fe2+ (ferrous) or Fe3+ (ferric).
What is the cation symbol for FeCl2?
The symbol of the cation of FeCl2 is Fe2+. A cation is a positively charged ion and to find the formula of any compound you must balance the cations with the anions.
How do you put ionic compounds in roman numerals?
Roman numerals are used to represent the charge of the cation in an ionic compound. The Roman numeral is placed in parentheses after the name of the cation to indicate its charge. For example, in Fe(NO3)2, the Fe cation has a +2 charge, so it is written as iron(II).
In a stock name such as iron III sulfate the roman numeral tell us?
The total positive charge of the cation, which is the iron ion in this case.
How are ionic compouds named?
Ionic compounds are named by using the name of the cation followed by the name of the anion. The cation retains its elemental name, while the anion's name is modified by changing the ending to "-ide" for monatomic anions. Roman numerals may be used in parentheses to indicate the charge of the cation if it forms more than one type of ion.
What is the cation name for NaO2?
The cation is Na+.
What is name of Fe 2 plus?
Fe^(2+) its name is the iron cation in oxidation state '2' . When combined, with say a sulphate anion it would be named as 'Ferrous sulphate'. NB Ferric sulphate is iron cation in oxidation state '3'. ( Fe2(SO4)3 ). Note the difference in spelling for different oxidation states.
Another name of cation?
A common name for a cation is a positively charged ion.
What is the name of a cation in an atom?
The name of a cation in an atom is electron. Cation refers to an ion of negative charge. Since electron is also of the same charge, the cation is electron.
What is the name of the Fe plus 2 ion?
It is the iron(II) cation. The Fe atom loses two electrons to become doubly positively charged Fe2+ cation. Some of the compounds it might form are FeSO4 and FeCl2.
When a cation has more than one ionic charge what is used in the name?
When a cation has more than one possible ionic charge you use either just the number (i.e. 2+) if it is in ion form or a roman numeral (II) in a name.
